If you look at page 432, Table 9.1 in Doyle's "Routing TCP/IP" for the OSPF
interface state machine, you will see clearly that one of the events (6). is
"the expiration of the RouterDeadInterval without having received a Hello
from the DR or the BDR or both", which changes directly to the DR/BDR

This has been an awesome thread to me. Thanks everyone for the input.
Evidently I'm not alone in being confused over BDR to DR promotion. The
books and literature I've found have clearly stated that the event to
promote BDR's to DR's is a missed LSA; however, the tests here show
otherwise. Winsto
LSAs or hello packets determine when the BDR takes over for the

If you look at the RFC, I believe there are only BDR elections. When a new
segment comes up, a BDR is elected, then promoted to DR, then the BDR is
elected again.

Just to put in some empirical data, I set up two routers on an

You couldn't be more right! I jumped the gun. My response to your
question 1) was incorrect. The BDR to Dr transition doesn't use the
Hello protocol. The BDR listens to the LSAs from other routers

David,
It appears you have received conflicting guidance on your
question...I'll throw my 2 cents in but I hope I don't add to the
confusion:
1) RouterDeadInterval is the legth of time a router waits for a Hello
packet from a neighbor before declaring it down...the same timer is used

But not on PtP links, Their is no DR e

3. doh...I have set up multiple as's on one router when I had multiple
